Founded in 1660, the Granary is the third oldest burying ground in Boston proper. In 1737, when grain was stored where the present Park Street Church stands, the burying ground was renamed the Granary. Along with Massachussetts Governors, Clergymen, and Mayors, three signers of the Declaration of Independence are buried here. Location: Park and Tremont Streets.

@alle Danke!@Alena, so ungefähr:
1660 angelegt, 3. ältester Friedhof in Boston.
1737 Granary Friedhof getauft - nach dem nahegelegenen Getreidelager. Es liegen hier Gouverneure des Bundesstaates Massachusetts, Kirchleute, Bostoner Bürgermeister sowie drei der Unterzeichenden der Unabhängigkeitserklärung.
